Poppy Californian, also known as California Poppy or Eschscholzia californica, is a bright, winter-flowering annual with silky, cup-shaped blooms. Its fern-like foliage and cheerful orange or yellow flowers thrive in full sun, making it ideal for pots, borders, or wild-style beds. Drought-tolerant and fast-growing, it adds a soft, natural charm to winter gardens.
